Symmetric Ternary Logic and Its Systematic Logic Composition Methodology

Logic in Computer Science 2023-05-09 v1

Abstract

Ternary logic is expected to increase the area efficiency of VLSI due to its expressiveness compared to the traditional binary logic. This paper proposes a new symmetric ternary logic and a systematic logic composition methodology that enables us to design any ternary logic circuits. The methodology is demonstrated by implementing the ternary inverters, ternary NAND, ternary NOR, and ternary half-adder operators with the proposed symmetric ternary operators.
